Justin Stamm The reviewer asked for a free copy to review this book, knowing ahead of time the subject material.

The cover clearly stated in big bold white letter that this was a script from a TV show, so you should not have been surprised at all. It's a popular trend right now to read script books. A preface traditionally has a purpose in publishing to justify the author's authority on the subject. For a reviewer say they are not interested in the backstory of the very subject identified on the cover is flakey and disingenuous. This review looks quite odd, lazy minded and or politically motivated by someone who didn't actually read it or ignored the fact this was a book about the Mafia & CIA collusion in criminal enterprises.

It's a shame the younger generation doesn't understand the significance of such a topic. I 'm calling this out as a fake review.
